Lyrics
Pale Red Moon
Written by:
Dan Edwards 2009
A summer night under a pale red moon,
And all I can do is think of you,
And all those things that we used to do,
They just keep coming through.
They come right through the pale red moon.
And then the clouds, they slowly cross the sky.
I see the silhouette of you and I.
Entwined in a love embrace, only to dissipate,
Leaves me alone under the pale red moon.
Pale red moon, why do you torture me?
Open my eyes only to make me see,
A love of mine that used to be...
Cruel, cruel pale red moon.
I pack my things and move on down the lane, I've got a
Bottle in hand to help ease the pain.
Yeah I've turned my back but it still feels the same,
I cast a shadow of blame,
From the light of the pale red moon.
Now it don't seem to matter just where I go,
The moon seems to follow, the moon seems to know.
And it always puts on the same sad show,
Cruel, cruel pale red moon.
Pale red moon, why do you torture me?
Open my eyes only to make me see,
A love of mine that used to be...
Cruel, cruel pale red moon.
Another beautiful song....lyrics are amazing! Great to see some new music.
